Installation
Before you start
- A server that meets the requirements, with root access
- A license key from your client area
- Three DNS names pointing at the server's IP:
panel.example.com,admin.panel.example.comandapi.panel.example.com
Run the installer
curl -fsSL https://virtlix.com/install-bm.sh -o install-bm.sh
bash install-bm.sh key=YOUR-LICENSE-KEY domain=panel.example.com
The install takes about ten minutes. It ends with the admin username and password. The full log is in /var/log/virtlix-bm-install.log.
